Mixed Colour Capsicum Quick Facts

Taste and Texture

Mixed Colour Capsicum Bell Peppers are juicy, crunchy and easy to use across many cuisines. Their thick flesh makes them suitable for slicing, dicing, roasting, grilling, stuffing and stir-frying.

Each colour gives a slightly different eating experience. Green bell pepper has a fresher, more savoury flavour. Red, yellow and orange capsicum are usually sweeter and more mellow because they are more mature.

• Green bell pepper for a fresher, savoury taste
• Red, yellow and orange capsicum for a sweeter flavour
• Good for raw salads and cooked dishes
• Suitable for roasting, grilling and stir-frying
• Useful for everyday home cooking and platters

Bell Pepper, Capsicum and Sweet Pepper

Bell pepper and capsicum usually refer to the same sweet, non-spicy pepper used as a vegetable. “Capsicum” is common in Singapore, Australia and parts of Asia, while “bell pepper” is common in the United States.

The phrase sweet pepper plant refers to the plant that produces sweet peppers such as capsicum and bell peppers. This product is the fresh harvested pepper fruit, not a plant for growing.

Bell Pepper in Chinese

Bell pepper in Chinese can be written in several ways depending on region and colour. Common names include 甜椒, 灯笼椒, 燈籠椒, 菜椒 and 柿子椒. Green bell pepper is often called 青椒 in everyday Chinese cooking.

How to Use Mixed Colour Capsicum

Mixed Colour Capsicum is one of the easiest vegetables to use because it can be eaten raw or cooked. Slice it thinly for salads and wraps, dice it for fried rice and omelettes, or cut it into larger pieces for roasting and grilling.

• Slice for salads, wraps and sandwiches
• Dice for fried rice, omelettes and pasta
• Stir-fry with garlic, onion, chicken, beef, tofu or prawns
• Roast with olive oil, herbs and sea salt
• Grill for skewers and barbecue platters
• Stuff with rice, minced meat, cheese or vegetables
• Add to pizza, shakshuka, curries and stews

Roasted Bell Pepper Hummus

Roasted bell pepper hummus is a simple way to use capsicum. Roast the bell peppers until soft and slightly charred, remove the skin if preferred, then blend with chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil and salt.

For a sweeter flavour, red, yellow or orange capsicum usually works best. Green bell pepper gives a more savoury and slightly sharper flavour, so it is often better for stir-fries and cooked dishes than sweet hummus-style dips.

Green Bell Pepper vs Red, Yellow and Orange Capsicum

Mixed colour capsicum gives more flexibility because each colour has a different flavour profile. The exact colours in each pack depend on the current packing and shipment.

How to Choose Capsicum Bell Peppers

Choose capsicum that feels firm and heavy for its size. The skin should look glossy and smooth, without large soft patches, mould, deep wrinkles or leaking areas.

• Choose firm and glossy bell peppers
• Look for bright colour and smooth skin
• Avoid soft, shrivelled or mouldy peppers
• Avoid peppers with leaking or wet spoiled areas
• Use green capsicum for a more savoury taste
• Use red, yellow or orange capsicum for sweeter dishes

Storage and Handling

Store whole capsicum bell peppers unwashed in the vegetable drawer of the refrigerator. Keep them dry and avoid cutting until you are ready to use them.

Once cut, remove the seeds and white membrane if preferred, then store the remaining capsicum in a sealed container in the refrigerator. Use cut capsicum as soon as possible for the best crunch and flavour.

• Refrigerate whole capsicum after delivery
• Keep unwashed before storage
• Wash only before cutting or cooking
• Store cut capsicum in a sealed container
• Remove soft or spoiled pieces early
• Use cut capsicum within a few days for best quality
• Discard if mouldy, slimy, leaking or fermented-smelling
